❌SOLD❌ Martin D-28 Dreadnought Natural, 1973

The Martin D-28 Dreadnought is one of the classic American guitars, used for countless performances and recordings since its introduction in 1931 as a 12-fret model. In 1934, it gained the 14-fret neck that is almost universally used now. The Dreadnought body design was first used by Martin for the Ditson company in 1916 but due to poor sales was retired until 1931, with the D-18 and D-28.

❌SOLD❌ Martin J-40 Jumbo Steel String Natural, 2005

Sometimes a guitar can surprise you. I picked up this Martin J-40 having handled a number of 000 guitars recently, and was taken aback by its depth and power. It sounds fantastic! The Martin J-40 appeared in 1990 as a reworking of the J-40 M introduced in 1985.

Martin 0-18 Steel String Guitar Natural, 1917 / *No Longer Available*

Here we’re looking at a Martin 0-18 dating to 1917 and built at the Martin plant in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. This fully functional and good sounding guitar is over a century old! Over the years, this Martin 0-18 guitar has had an amount of service. Virtually all steel string guitars of a certain age will require a neck reset, and that was done on this guitar some time ago. It has been refretted.

It’s not so common these days to see something like this pre-war Martin 00-17 Mahogany steel string, built during 1939. The moderate-sized 00 is one of Martin’s oldest body designs. It was launched in 1898, with the first 00-17 appearing in 1908 when three were built.
